I still haven't found a free converter which makes the video full size to the screen and not choppy as all hell. Has anyone?

Ok.

So I was able to get video to play off of the SD card.

Now my question is...how can i get it so that it will play full screen instead of half that it is doing right now.

 

thanks!

With the video paused go into the av setup menu. The option is in there.

If it is already set to "full" its the video format your playing and not the unit.

YES exactly!!! kinda both.

slimmer wide screen with the sides cut off too.

can that be fixed?

 

and i will try the AV format full screen thing.

 

thanks.

The screen's resolution is 800x480... if your videos are encoded at a lower resolution there is a chance of that happening.

What video format's play on SD? I added some MPEGs, loaded my SD card, switched to Video, and it says "Impossible to play all videos". Why? I dropped the vids in a Video folder I created parallel to a music folder I have with my MP3s.

 

Thoughts or success with this appreciated. I have a 900BT.

Download the manual, and go to page 188.

Basically, you need them to be in MP4 format, not MPG/MPEG. Also, some WMV files will play as well.
